had booked us into the Puteric Pacific Hotel right in the heart of things in Johor Bahru for our stay there from April 15 - 17th. It is a 5-star hotel with a great view. A view from the outside elevator down to the pool and play area. As soon as you walk out, there is the hustle and bustle of Indian shops, Chinese shops and ethnic restaurants. |
durian because of the incredible odour, and mangosteen because of the red juice that would stain the prestine bedding. |

Karen and Lai met us at the hotel for breakfast. |
breakfast consists of both Asian and Western items, except for pork which is not part of the Muslim diet. |

And they are tasty too - no calories;-) |
coconut milk, palm sugar, pandan flavoured green noodles and beans - so delicious! We were introduced to this while visiting Penang with my foodie friend Teck Poh Choo. That day, she took us to her favourite street vendor and these were very refreshing. |
